Making the case for UK physical activity guidelines for early years

Recommendations and draft summary statements based on the current evidence, working paper

Samenvatting

The present document aims to:

  1. Provide a brief summary of the case for the development of Physical Activity Guidelines for the Early Years in the UK during 2009-2010.
  2. Outline the scope of the guidelines.
  3. Outline the process and milestones involved in producing draft summary statements by end November 2009, and final summary statements by spring 2010 which will provide the starting point for the Guidelines Writing Group.
  4. Provide draft summary statements for consultation.
  5. Align the process for developing physical activity guidelines for the Early Years with the process which is underway to update guidelines for Children and Young People, Adults and Older Adults in the UK in 2009-2010.

Once agreed, the Early Years guidelines can, therefore, be reviewed alongside the guidelines for older groups as the need arises in future.
